Online safety for

primary school children

As your child gets older, and technology changes,
make sure you continue talking about what they
are doing online and how to stay safe.
Safe Search

Talk about what they do online, what sites they visit and
their favourite websites.

Discuss safety rules and how much personal information
they should share online.

Make sure your child knows what to do if anything upsets
them online and reassure them that they can come to you.

Check who your child is playing online games with and
that your child knows what information they can share
with others.

Use parental controls across all of the devices that your
children have access to.

Set Safety Mode up on YouTube to help lter out
explicit content.

If you use Google, turn on Google Safe Search to lter
sexually explicit content from your search results.
